Operation

1. Lift water tank (p. 3, fig. A 2 ) off of base holding bottom of tank with both

hands.

2. NOTE: DO NOT hold water tank by handle (p. 4, fig. 2 3 ) when empty or full.

3. Turn tank upside down and unscrew water tank cap (p. 4, fig. 3 5 ) by turning it

counterclockwise.

4. Fill water tank with cold water. Do not fill all the way to the rim.

5. NOTE: If you have hard water, it is recommended to use filtered or distilled water.

While using the humidifier, if you see a film of white dust, it is because of hard

water.

6. DO NOT add any medication or other additives into the water tank itself. For use of

essential oils, see page 17.

7. Screw water tank cap back onto tank by turning clockwise.

8. Place tank onto the base (p. 3, fig. A 3 ). Make sure it is laying flush into the

base. There should not be a space between the tank and base.

9. Place mist lid (p. 3, fig. A 1 ) on top of water tank and turn mist lid to face

desired direction of the mist.

10. NOTE: DO NOT move humidifier while water tank is on base. Water may leak into

the base causing a malfunction.

11. Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet. DO NOT use an extension cord.

12. Turn power on by turning the control knob (p. 4, fig. 5 12 ) clockwise (to the

right). You will hear a minor clicking noise when turning unit on and off. The

green power indicator light will turn on.

13. In a few moments, the mist will start coming through the mist lid. Use the control

knob to adjust the intensity of the mist output. Turning the knob clockwise will

increase the moisture output, turning the knob counterclockwise will reduce the

moisture output.

14. Note: When at maximum level, it is normal to hear a faint dripping sound.

15. Turn on the blue unit LED night light by pressing the ‘LED On/Off’ button (p. 4,

fig. 5 14 or 15 ). To turn it off, press and hold the button for 2 seconds.

Operation

16. Turn on the white unit LED color changing night light by pressing the ‘LED On/Off’

button (p. 4, fig. 5 15 ). The LED lights will change continuously in the following

order;

• Purple, dark blue, light blue, green, yellow, orange and red

To turn it off, press and hold the button for 2 seconds.

17. When the humidifier runs out of water, the power light (p. 4, fig. 5 13 ) will turn

red, and the mist output will stop. This is a safety feature to prevent the humidifier

from possibly overheating and damaging the nebulizer (p. 4, fig. 4 7 ). This

safety feature uses a water level sensor (p. 4, fig. 4 9 ) to stop the nebulizer

once the water level sinks below the required level in the water basin.

18. Turn the humidifier off and unplug before removing and refilling the water tank.

Setting the correct humidity output

Adjust the mist control so that the mist rises up and gets absorbed by the room

air. Do not turn on too high an output as the mist cannot be absorbed by the air

and accumulates on the surface around the humidifier. If the humidifier is placed

near a fan or air conditioning outlet, the mist may be forced down by the foreign

air stream. Change the location of the humidifier or reduce the output of the other

room conditioning appliances.

Correct Incorrect

Operation

Using essential oils

Essential oils can be used on the aroma pad located in the aroma tray on the side of

the base. You can mix and match any oil scents you would like.

1. Place about 3 drops of desired scent on the aroma pad located in the aroma tray

16 (see above).

2. Push the aroma tray into the base.

3. Each pad should only be used per desired scent.

4. Before attempting to reuse aroma pad with a different scent, clean the aroma

pad by lightly hand washing it in warm water and letting it thoroughly air dry.

Helpful hints

1. It is best to keep the humidity level at about 30-50 percent of relative humidity.

2. The comfort level of humidity will vary from room to room and with changing

room conditions.

3. In cold weather, windows and even some walls may fog or develop frost from

excessive indoor humidity. If this occurs, reduce the mist intensity setting to avoid

damage from condensed water dripping on windowsills.

4. Too much humidity in the room may allow moisture to accumulate on surfaces

where bacteria and fungi can grow. Moisture that gathers may also damage

furniture and walls, especially wallpaper.

5. To eliminate excessive humidity, especially in small rooms, leave the room door

open and adjust the mist intensity control setting.

6. Note: To avoid possible white dust due to hard water, it is recommended to use

filtered or distilled water.

7. DO NOT use hot water. Use cool tap water.

8. DO NOT add any medication or other additives to the water.

9. DO NOT pour water into Vapor Outlet Channel (p. 4, fig. 2 2 ).

10. Note: Do not attempt to move humidifier while water tank is placed on the water

basin. Doing so may cause leakage of water. Also, do not place humidifier on the

floor. Place humidifier on an elevated surface.

Troubleshooting

CAUTION!

DO NOT attempt to repair the motor or nebulizer yourself. If the

humidifier continues to not operate, please call customer service.

Problem Solution

The power indicator light (p. 4, fig. 5 13 )

is staying red and not turning green:

Humidifier is working than stops:

• Clean the base (p. 3, fig. A 3 )

especially where the water level sensor

float is

If humidifier does not work at all: • Ensure it is properly plugged into a

power outlet.

• Check that the control knob (p. 4, fig. 5

12 ) is in the ON position.

• If Power On indicator light (p. 4,

fig. 5 13 ) does not come on, bring to

authorized service station.

If there is a strange odor: • Clean the tank (p. 3, fig. A 2 )with

water and vinegar or bleach and rinse

with clean water.

• Leave the tank open for some time

without the cap, in a cool place.

The power indicator light (p. 4, fig. 5

13 ) is green but there is no mist being

emitted:

• Check that there is water in the tank.

• Check for possible lime deposits on the

water level sensor (p. 4, fig. 4 9 ) or

the nebulizer (p. 4, fig. 4 7 ) .

• Make sure that nothing blocks the

vapor output slots (p. 4, fig. 3 6 ) .

• Check that the fan vent (p. 4, fig. 4 10 )

on bottom of humidifier is not blocked.

• Empty the humidifier and rinse the

water basin with cool tap water and

allow to dry for 15 to 30 min.

White dust appears and settles outside

the humidifier:

• Area tap water may have too many

minerals, change to filtered or distilled

water.

Cleaning and maintenance

Portable humidifiers require regular cleaning in order to reduce the risk of bacterial

growth and also to remove any scale residue to maintain good operational

performance. Follow the procedures below for healthy maintenance of your

Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier.

CAUTION!

NEVER PLUG OR UNPLUG HUMIDIFIER WITH WET HANDS.

Always be sure that the humidifier is unplugged and switched OFF

before cleaning or attempting to clean or store the item.

DO NOT leave water in water tank (p. 3, fig. A 2 ) or water basin when unit is not in

use as it may result in the buildup of mineral deposits and bacteria that can inhibit

the output efficiency of the humidifier. PLEASE NOTE that if water remains in the

water tank for more than a day or two, bacterial growth is possible.

NOTE: When removing water tank, water may accumulate under vapor lid and on

the bottom of the water tank. It is recommended to have a dry cloth ready to dry

wet surfaces.

Disinfecting the water tank and water basin

1. Fill water tank with 2 tablespoons of white vinegar or bleach in a ½ gallon of

water. Let stand 20 minutes. Screw on water tank cap (p. 4, fig. 3 5 ) and shake

vigorously with two hands every few minutes, drain and rinse with clean water

until the vinegar or bleach smell is gone. Dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.

2. Fill the base with water and add 2 tablespoons of white vinegar or bleach to the

water and let it soak for 20 minutes. Drain the base and rinse with cool water. Dry

with a soft cloth. DO NOT IMMERSE WATER BASIN IN WATER. An electric shock may

result or the humidifier may be damaged.

3. Wipe all exterior surfaces of the base with a damp, soft cloth.

4. It is normal for water to be in the water basin. However, water must not get inside

the central body. If this should happen, take the humidifier to an authorized

service center before using it again.

NOTE: It is recommended to clean humidifier with the water and white vinegar

solution as stated above after using the humidifier about once a week or if cleaning

seems necessary.

IMPORTANT: Failure to keep this humidifier clean from mineral deposits normally

contained in any water supply will affect the efficiency of the operation. Customer

failure to follow these instructions may void the warranty.

Storage

Allow the humidifier to dry completely before storing. Store the humidifier in a dry

location. Do not place any heavy items on top of humidifier during storage as this

may result in possible damage of the appliance. Always check the plug before use

to assure metal items have not become attached.

• Save the box for off-season storage.

• Make sure the tank, water basin and water tank cap are dried thoroughly before

storing.

• If water is left in the unit during storage, it may evaporate completely and leave

deposits that can prevent the unit from operating properly.

• Leave the water tank cap loose to prevent the water cap and gasket from sticking

together. This will prolong the life of the gasket.
